Europe USA Travel, Inc., an affiliate of Apollo Ship Chandlers, Inc., was established in 1986 to provide travel for Apollo affiliate crewmembers working onboard Chandris Fantasy Cruises, Dolphin Cruise Line, Ocean Cruise Lines, and Regency Cruises. Those cruise lines are long gone, but Europe USA remains, and has gone from strength to strength over the years.

Nowadays, Europe USA not only provides travel arrangements for Apollo affiliate crewmembers working onboard Oceania Cruises, Island Cruises, and Discovery Cruise Line, but has also expanded to become a leader in the Marine Travel Industry, providing crew travel services to the shipboard employees of many different companies.

Business practices have changed as well, from telephone sales and paper tickets to today's scenario where the vast majority of business arrives electronically and is fulfilled electronically.

Outside crew sales (to non-Apollo affiliate crew) has doubled in the two years from 2003 - 2005, and Europe USA has handled this 100% increase with ease.

In April of 2006, Europe USA will open a satellite office in Barcelona, Spain to facilitate crew rotations for the vessels to which the company provides services during the busy Med season.

Europe USA will exhibit at the 2006 Seatrade Cruise Shipping Convention in Miami Beach, FL from March 14 to 16 and will welcome visitors at booth 3226.
